that her uncle, thinking she would not

A Machine style.

When a man has written or spoken
constantly for years, and his calling has
been one of letters or law, 1t is an easy
matter for him to write or speak on
nearly any occasion. He writes without
an effort. His talk may be smooth and
easy, his composition pretty, but 1t is
not satisfactory to himslf generally. 1t
is too much like something he has
written or said so often before to suit
him. The average writer and the ay-
erage orator feels that be has got down
into a sort OF machine style that te can
not get out of. He is impoverished FOR
want of new words. nav expressions,
new thoughts and new ideas.

It il not work but worry that kills
II . man will observe these rules he vii
be astonished ct the amount Of work b
can do, the number Of ideas and thought
he can emit. Not one man in one hun
dred has ever performed half the worl
he il capable Of doing. Not one in tel
knows how to work to advantage; how 4
work and save himself for the mex
effort. To young men about entering
the lists these simple suggestions, from
one who for thirty-four years has been ,
constant worker, will in after years b.
found valuable:
First. Do not waste strength in any
kind Of dissipation, Have fun; seeh
amusement; not to weaken but to relaz
your thought ibres. Do not waste your
constitution by the use of stimulsnts.
The use Of stimulants may make you
brilliant for the time, but you cannot
rely on anything but yourself and your
inspiration for steady and constantly in.
creasing results that will add to your re.
putation and ability to perform.
Secondly. Eat the best and richest
food that your appetite Graves and most
readily assimilates with your digestive
capacity. The brain is a jealous master
and is never an obedient servant when
the stomach, its quartermaster's depart
mont, is not well rAtioned.
Thirdly. Write or work only when
you feel like il. Never attempt to write
when thought does not flow readily, or
you viii Be- like > pump that, for lack Of
watsr. gulps wind.
Foarthly. Think and write what is
the easiest. The rose does not emit the
perfume Of the pink, no matter how
much you bruise it. Permit no man,
sect, creed or society to handcuf your
thinking power. The brain that trots
il best in harness Of another is but a
plug-useful only for hack work.
Filthy. Write - you think, under

You are shooting at may move across the

msmbsring that it il safer to shoot over

Above, Yet With Us.

The best men have the most sympathy
with the blighted and bad world. The
higher we ascend in character the more
srue and tender become our human SYM
pathies. The world from which good men
are pushed away receives them back as
unspeakable ministers of comfort. We
feel that the man to go to for fresh incen-
tive in our struggles with base desire, for
hope in Encouragement, for strength in
times of extremity, for sympathy in the
hour of trial, for consolation in the hour OF
sorrow, is the man most above US in loving
obedience to his Lord. He knows best
what we should be in purity and courage,
in hope and trust. He knows best that
God made US for these things. He can best
make US see ourselves as we shall be in the
promised land of the soul. He beyond all
others can win his way to our hearts. He
beyond all others can lead us forth IN cour-
ageous pursuit of Christian manhood, In
our baff1ed aspirations after purity we seek

MISERY AND WEALTH.
A Theory on the Distribution of Riches
Gathered from the Pages OF History.

In Rome, under the Empire, wealth at one
pole was symptom Of misery at the other,
because Rome was not an industrial state.
Its income came from plumber The wealth
had source Independent Of the produc-
ton Of the society of Rome, Tn 1t part OF
the booty which some got others could not
have. No such thing is true of an indus
trial society. The wealth Of the CONNER
cial cities of Italy and Southern Germany,
in the middle ages, was largely in the
hands Of merchant-princes. If one were
told that some of these merchants were
very rich, he would have no ground Of in
ference that others in those cities must
have been poor. The rich were those who
developed the opportunities Of commerce
which We're, IN the first instance, open
to all. What they gained came out
of nothing which anybody else ever had
or would have had. The fact that there
are wealthy men in England, France and
| the United States to-day, IS no evidence
that there must be poor men here. The
riches of the rich are perfectly consistent
with high condition Of wealth Of all, down
70 the last. In fact, the aggrcgations of
wealth. both while being made and after
realization, develop and sustain the pros
perity of all The forward movement OF q

and highly developed command by ma
chincry over the forces of nature, must
produ, state of society in which average
al minimum comfort are high, while
| special aggregations may be enormous,
misfortune and vice being left out Of &C.
count.
Whatever nexus there is between wealth
at one pole and poverty at the other can be
| found only by turning the proposition into
its converse-misery at one pole makes
wealth at the other. If the mass at one
pole should, through any form of industrial
vice, fall into misery they would offer tc
the few wise an opportunity to become rich
by taking advantage of them. They would
offer large supply of labor at low wages,
a high demand for capital at high rates OF
interest and fierce demand for land at
| high rent.-Prof. ". G. Sumner, IN Popular
Science Monthly.
